Identification of Mutant Asp251Gly/Gln307His of Cytochrome P450 BM3 for the Generation of Metabolites of Diclofenac, Ibuprofen and Tolbutamide
15 Feb 2012
Abstract excerpt
The soluble, catalytically self-sufficient cytochrome P450 BM3 from Bacillus megaterium is a good candidate as biocatalyst for the synthesis of drug metabolites. To this end, error-prone polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to generate a library of P450 BM3 mutants with novel activities toward drugs. The double mutant Asp251Gly/Gln307His (A2) with activities towards diclofenac, ibuprofen and tolbutamide was...
